A sick child is all smiles as he receives one of Baraem’s mascots

As part of its contribution to the society, and in line with the ideals of the holy month of Ramadan, Qatalum held a special Ramadan Iftar for the children of the Qatar Orphan Foundation (Dhreima).
The Iftar was hosted on Saturday at the traditional Qatari-style restaurant, Al Tawash, located in the heart of Souq Waqif.
The date was chosen because of the importance of Garangao day – a mid-Ramadan festival for children celebrated on the 14th night of Ramadan.
In keeping with traditions, Qatalum organised special Garangao gifts and sweets for all the children attending the Iftar, and also provided entertainment to match the celebratory nature of the festival, including clowns, balloon twisting, and a number of other exciting activities.
Qatalum’s acting public relations manager Khalifa al-khuzaei said the company is committed to support and make a difference in the community.
Qatargas supported a Garangao celebration, organised by the Ministry of Interior’s Traffic Department at Hyatt Plaza on Sunday as part of Ramadan Road Safety campaign sponsored by the company.
The event included theatre plays, traditional Garangao songs, and games that focused on children’s safety on the road. Participants received bags of sweets and gifts.
Garangao goodies and children’s toys were also distributed to children at the Hamad hospital.
Teams from Al Jazeera Children’s Channel and Baraem TV visited the children’s section of Hamad Medical Corp in Doha and Al Khor to celebrate the traditional Garangao day with young patients.
Children were happy to interact with Baraem’s mascots that distributed Garangao treat bags.
